Cerius Insights

An interim executive inherently brings with him or her the role of the “outsider” with no personal or professional agenda, combined with experience of the M&A process. Often this combination can bring a degree of comfort to employees as they weather this season of change, and minimize disruptions in employee productivity at a time when you need to maximize your company’s value.
